Answer 1

hi Ashley

If I pay for a phone call that cost $0.09 per minute and I paid $12 how long would the phone call be?

How many minutes would that equal out to be?

Given

Phone call costs $0.09 per min or $0.09/min

I paid $12

Find

How long with the phone call be in minutes

So start with the amount you paid and multiply by the rate keeping in mind that you need to have your rate set up properly so that units cancel out. Since we are starting with $ in the numerator, we need $ in the denominator of our rate.

$12 x (1 min/ $0.09) = 133.33 min
